« Wash Day | Main | Felt - Part 2 »
Experimenting with felt-making...
is loads of fun. This piece started it's life as a crocheted pouch. After 2 cycles in the washing machine with sudsy hot water...
the resulting "fabric" was actually dense enough to anchor a few grommets.
Insert an empty cottage cheese container to help the base keep it's form and offer a bit of stability...
and you have a swell needle holder...
or not...

I am going to make my second attempt at felting this weekend... my first ended in disaster due to me not knowing I needed 100% animal fiber, not the synthetic blends from Walmart. LOL Your project is very cute and trendy!
